17 variants interaction of Wnt/β-catenin pathway associated with development of osteonecrosis of femoral head in Chinese Han population.

ABSTRACT: The genes of Wnt/β-catenin pathway may have potential roles in fat accumulation of Non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), but the effects of their variants in the pathway on ONFH development have been remained unclear. To explore the potential roles of the variants in the development of ONFH, we completed the investigation of the paired interactions as well as their related biological functions of 17 variants of GSK3β, LRP5, and FRP4 genes etc. in the pathway. The genotyping of the 17 variants were finished by MASS ARRAY PLATFORM in a 560 ONFH case-control system. The association of variants interactions with ONFH risk and clinical traits was evaluated by logistic regression analysis etc. and bioinformatics technology. The results showed that the genotype, allele frequency
